<p>I think perl (especially in combination with XS) can do nearly everything. But some things don't make sense because there exist faster solutions, e.g. 3D programming ([Corion] showed me at the last frankfurt-pm-meeting that it can be done, but it isn't very fast; a 3D shooter like quake wouldn't give enough frames per second to be comfortable enough on a common PC) or system drivers.</p>
<p>Btw: Perl/CGI usually seems to be a little bit slower than ASP, but you can probably use mod_perl. And comparing Perl/Tk to VB is a bit like comparing oranges and plumns, since AFAIK in VB you can only use objects, whereas in Perl you can create your own ones (may have changed with .NET, I don't know). And often, the VB-GUI looks more like a windows application than Tk where some widgets look ugly, e.g. Tk::Notebook or Tk::Combobox. But if that is essential, you can as well use wxPerl instead of Perl/Tk)</p>
